Corey Knebel Placed On COVID-Related Injured List
3 years agoThe Philadelphia Phillies placed closer Corey Knebel (illness) on the COVID-related injured list on Tuesday. Knebel was unavailable for the ninth inning of Monday's game against the New York Mets due to flu-like symptoms. We don't have any information in regards to whether he has tested positive for COVID-19 or if he is just dealing with COVID-like symptoms. Expect him to be out at least for the next few days. Brad Hand pitched a clean ninth inning on Monday to earn his first save of the year. He's the Phillies reliever you want to roster until Knebel is back, though other relievers like Jeurys Familia and Jose Alvarado could factor into the saves picture as well.
